this is really simple first go to your toolbox and select the brush after selecting it you will find box bellow the toolbox where the different sizes of the brush is given then you can get into it and select the size you have mentioned in your above post.

There is a few good ways to pull this off. The simplest in my opinion is to ctrl+click(PC) your layer with your design; this will give you your running ants around your design. Now on a new layer under your design, fill the selection with the color you want to use for your shadow. Apply a blur to it, then using free transform, ctrl+T(PC), right click your selection and use the warp option. This method gives you more options and freedom to do a large variety of angles and curves.
If you need to be more precise, use your pen tool to make a path then right click the path wile you still have the pen tool and chose stroke path with brush then add a blur to that. With this method, make sure you have the right brush and size pre-selected before you make your path. You will probably still end up doing it a couple of times until you find the right brush settings but you can get real nice curves and depending on the brush you use you can get some wacky shapes and scatter effects that work real good with landscape scenes.

I know this has been answered a few times, but this is how I would go about creating this effect in only 3 easy steps.
1. Create a oval shape using your ellipse tool to suit your needs.
2. Go to Filter >> Blur >> Gaussian blur and most likely set it around 16 or 18 but really it depends on how large your ellipse is as to how much blur you will need.
3. Next Edit >> Transform >> Warp and adjust the edges and the middle. Usually you will pull the edges down and push the middle up a bit.
Once you overlay your image to hide the middle, it will give a nice little shadow below. Of course, you should play around with Photoshop. The more you experiment, the more you learn.
